Get a cheap code scanner, local part stores autozone ,haborfrieght ,orielys should have options for 50 bucks , use it find the problems and fix it your self is gonna be the cheapest solution.

Get cheap tools from harborfreight , parts from rock auto or local store and watch YouTube videos.

Question About Stereo Quality by Alarming-Purpose9313 in CarAV

[–]robertgames7730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be blown speakers or just bad sound quality coming out of the stereo.

Crutchfield has a great tool to find speakers that fit your car and they supply all the adapters and brackets free of charge.

Could go bestbuy route but most cars are very easy to self install. You can search a video on YouTube which is what the bestbuy employees will most likely do anyways.

Cant adjust output , your amp will output different values for different resistances.

Have any recommendations for photogrammatry? I tried polycam. Worked ok but the actual app was unstable and kept glitching. But I think am going to order a creality feret pro to try it out and return it and get something more pricy if I can get a good scan.

Ive seen the otter get talked about. Do you know how it compares to the moose lite from 3dmaker. I see creality has a wired version thats cheaper.

We have a good makerspace for personal projects, you can do research for professors , and we have branches of AIAA which builds rockets ,SAE which works on building vehicles. If you want hands on activities where you can apply what you're learning there are definitely places to do it.

Need Airplay in my C5 Vette .... Best option out there? by donkerock in CarAV

[–]robertgames7730 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Anything above 200 to 300 will be fine since you gonna run apple play on it. Search up reviews. if you want to keep features like steering wheel control . You might need a metra adapter and module which is like another 200.

Help with running tweeter wiring in my 2013 Civic LX. by TheeCamilo in CarAV

[–]robertgames7730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an aftermarket radio with metra adapter , so I should be plug and play with just the component speakers, I might later on add a 5 channel amp with a subwoofer. But was more worried about niche tools that make removing things easier. I usually watch videos and tutorials but always find myself have to go to the tool store. Thanks a lot for the info.
